OGDEN, Utah-University of North Dakota junior forward Madi Buck has been named co-Big Sky Conference Player of the Week according to an
official league announcement Monday. Buck shares the award with Sacramento
State's Kylie Kuhns and becomes the second UND player to win the weekly
accolade (Emily Evers).

Buck scored a team-high 18
points to go along with six rebounds and a career-best five blocked shots as
North Dakota upset host University of Utah, 62-56, Saturday afternoon in Salt
Lake City, Utah. Buck was 9-of-10 from the free throw line and hit a clutch
3-pointer with the shot-clock expiring to spark a 10-0 UND run in the second
half. North Dakota and Buck's defensive efforts helped keep a potent Utes
attack at bay, holding Utah to just 33 percent shooting and well under their
points per game average coming into the contest.
